What is driving the margin?

Net margin expanded to 14.09%, rising 43.1pp. The main driver is Gross margin rose 35.3pp and SG&A / Revenue fell 8.6pp, moving in line with the stronger net margin (in addition, Other profit / Revenue rose 0.3pp added support while Net financial result / Revenue fell 1.2pp remained a drag).

The improvement comes from core operations — this is a high-quality margin expansion.

Is capital being used efficiently?

Capital efficiency should be read in industry context — ROIC may fluctuate with business specifics.

Is capital being deployed efficiently?

Track how much operating profit the business generates on invested capital.

Industry characteristics make ROIC cyclical — this is a reference signal and should be read with the business context.

ROIC
NOPAT Margin
Capital Turnover 0.24x +0.07x
Average Invested Capital 718.5bn −25.3bn

Balance Sheet

ROIC above should be read with industry context — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Capital structure is conservative with low leverage — liabilities at 0.59x equity, net debt at 0.20x equity.

Over the last 12 months, working capital absorbed 5.1bn of cash, mainly because of lower payables. Part of that drag was offset by lower receivables and lower inventories.

Working Capital Drivers

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Receivables decreased → higher CFO: +3.8bn
Inventories decreased → higher CFO: +1.3bn
Payables decreased → lower CFO: −10.2bn

Working Capital Efficiency

Working capital is being managed more efficiently, supporting overall capital efficiency. Cash conversion cycle improved by 3.7 days versus the same period last year. The main moves came from DIO rose 2.9 days, DSO fell 6.3 days, and DPO rose 0.3 days.

Improvement comes mainly from faster receivables collection — reflects the quality of receivables management.

Watchpoints

Inventory turnover is slowing

DIO increased by +2.9 days, suggesting more capital is being tied up in inventories.

TTM YoY · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

Cash Conversion Cycle 50.6 days −3.7 days

Is financial risk significant?

Financial risk is low — leverage is safe, both CFO and FCF are positive.

Leverage & Liquidity

Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.20x and interest coverage only at 1.01x.

At present, short-term debt accounts for 30.3% of total debt, cash equals 30.1% of debt, and total debt stands at 166.5bn.

Watchpoints

Interest coverage is thin

Interest coverage is 1.01x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.

Leverage and liquidity trend

Net Debt / Equity 0.20x −0.12x
Interest Coverage 1.01x +2.49x
Cash / Debt 30.1% +16.2pp
Short-term Debt / Total Debt 30.3% −6.2pp
CFO / NI 2.49x +2.14x

Cash Flow

With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 51.9bn in 2025, against investing cash flow of -1.9bn.

Post-investment cash flow was positive +50.1bn. Financing cash flow was negative +46.1bn.

CFO / net income was 2.49x.

After spending +2.2bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +57.8bn.

Cash Conversion

TTM Cash Conversion · 2025Q1 -> 2026Q1

CFO TTM 60.0bn +72.2bn
Cash Capex 2.2bn −0.1bn
FCF TTM +57.8bn +72.4bn

Investment Takeaway

The business is heading the right way, but the current picture is still at partial confirmation — not yet a fully clean case. The positive points have clearly improved, showing the operating base is better than before. The brighter spot is operating efficiency, with net margin improving 43.1 pp. The next item to monitor is capital efficiency. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 1.01x.

Improvement: operating efficiency is getting better, with trailing-12M net margin at 14.09% after expanding 43.1pp versus the same period last year.

Watchpoint: Capital efficiency needs cycle context.

Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at 1.01x.
